As someone born and raised in China who only moved to Ireland at the age of 20, I did have an usual experience when I first came to Ireland by myself.

The Irish Renaissance—or IrishRevival—that occurred around the turn of the 20th century fused and elevated aesthetic and civic ambitions, fueling a cultural climate of masterful artistic creation and resolute political self-determination reminiscent of the Italian Renaissance. Delve into this remarkable period with The Irish Identity: Independence, History, and Literature. Over the course of 36 enthralling lectures, ProfessorMarcConner of Washington and Lee University reveals the multifaceted story of the Irish Renaissance through an exploration of its complex history and remarkable literature.
After laying the groundwork of ancient Irish history and centuries of British rule—from the Norman invasion in the 12th century through the brutal Penal Laws and the Great Famine—Professor Conner brings you inside the Irish Revival, when a group of writers began taking a keen interest in the uniquely Irish culture, from its language to its art to its mythology. This fascination fed into the growing demand for Irish nationhood, for the arts, culture, and politics of the time are inextricable.
Uncovering Ireland’s mythic cultural history worked in tandem with promoting the power of a nationalist political movement. As a consequence of British rule, the Protestant Ascendancy had become the dominant land-owning and political class, leaving Catholics and Irish country folk to nurture their identity, history, and myths under strong—often brutal—oppression. As you’ll discover in these lectures, the formation of the Irish identity in the early 20th century was a fierce struggle—a story clearly captured in the literature of the era.

Just a few of the random things I've noticed while living in another country!

Due to large-scale emigration from Ireland, Irish culture has a global reach and festivals such as Saint Patrick's Day, Halloween and The Twelfth of July are celebrated all over the world. Irish culture has to some degree been inherited and modified by the Irish diaspora, which in turn has influenced the home country.

Culture

Culture (/ˈkʌltʃər/) is, in the words of E.B. Tylor, "that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society."

Cambridge English Dictionary states that culture is, "the way of life, especially the general customs and beliefs, of a particular group of people at a particular time."Terror Management Theory posits that culture is a series of activities and worldviews that provide humans with the illusion of being individuals of value in a world meaning—raising themselves above the merely physical aspects of existence, in order to deny the animal insignificance and death that Homo Sapiens became aware of when they acquired a larger brain.

The island's geography comprises relatively low-lying mountains surrounding a central plain, with several navigable rivers extending inland. The island has lush vegetation, a product of its mild but changeable climate which avoids extremes in temperature. Thick woodlands covered the island until the Middle Ages. As of 2013, the amount of land that is wooded in Ireland is about 11% of the total, compared with a European average of 35%. There are 26 extant mammal species native to Ireland. The Irish climate is very moderated and classified as oceanic. As a result, winters are milder than expected for such a northerly area. However, summers are cooler than those in Continental Europe. Rainfall and cloud cover are abundant.

The Great Courses

The Great Courses (TGC) is a series of college-level audio and video courses produced and distributed by The Teaching Company (TTC), a Chantilly, Virginia company, via mobile, tablet, and connected TV apps,CD, DVD, or MP3 and MPEG-4 download formats, and streaming media.

The series differ from most online learning platforms in that they are produced for enrichment purposes only and offered without schedules, homework, exams, or certificates.

Background

The company was founded in 1990 by Thomas M. Rollins, former Chief Counsel of the United States Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources. Rollins had been inspired by a 10-hour videotaped lecture series he watched while at Harvard Law School, and began recruiting top professors and experts based almost entirely on customer feedback.
As of 2016, the company offers over 550 courses ranging in length from six lectures to over ninety lectures in several subject categories: business, economics, fine arts, music, ancient and medievalhistory, modern history, literature and English language, philosophy and intellectual history, religion, science, mathematics, social sciences, professional development and better living. This latter category includes a range of topics such as health & wellness, food & wine, photography, drawing, travel, parenting, chess, mindfulness, tai chi, and yoga. In 2015, the company began offering its video courses as part of an unlimited subscription streaming service called The Great Courses Plus.

12. Britain and Ireland

The EarlyMiddle Ages, 284--1000 (HIST 210)
In this lecture, Professor Freedman considers the importance of the British Isles in the early Middle Ages, both in their own right and as an example of a post-Roman frontier society. In the wake of the fifth century Roman withdrawal, England experienced "radical economic simplification." However, England's conversion to Christianity beginning at the end of the sixth century brought about a flourishing written culture and Latin learning. Ireland experienced a similar cultural flowering, although it had converted to Christianity centuries earlier. It had never been colonized by the Romans, and the Irish Church was less hierarchical, more decentralized, and placed less importance on bishops than did the Roman. The conversion of England under the c...

Culture Of Ireland

The '''culture of Ireland''' includes customs and traditions, language, music, art, literature, folklore, cuisine and sports associated with Ireland and the Irish people. For most of its recorded history, Ireland's culture has been primarily Gaelic ( see Gaelic Ireland ) . It has also been influenced by Anglo-Norman, English and Scottish culture. The Anglo-Normans invaded Ireland in the 12th century, while the 16th/17th century conquest and colonization of Ireland saw the emergence of the Anglo-Irish and Scots-Irish ( or Ulster Scots ) . Today, there are notable cultural differences between those of Catholic and Protestant ( especially Ulster Protestant ) background, and between travellers and the settled population.

The Forgotten Irish

In 2009, Animo produced The ForgottenIrish for Tv3.
This two part documentary series examined the Irish men and women who were forced to emigrate to the UK during the economic stagnation of the 1950s. It looked at how many of the men became involved in building the motorways and rebuilding war-torn cities around England, while many women worked in domestic service or healthcare.
Despite the enormous contribution these emigrants made, both to their new countries and to Ireland by sending money back home to their families, many of these elderly emigrants are now living lives of poverty and loneliness in their adopted lands.
The Forgotten Irish was an intimate and touching series that encapsulates the personal stories of the generation who emigrated to England after the war, telling very...

The Irish Renaissance—or IrishRevival—that occurred around the turn of the 20th century fused and elevated aesthetic and civic ambitions, fueling a cultural climate of masterful artistic creation and resolute political self-determination reminiscent of the Italian Renaissance. Delve into this remarkable period with The Irish Identity: Independence, History, and Literature. Over the course of 36 enthralling lectures, ProfessorMarcConner of Washington and Lee University reveals the multifaceted story of the Irish Renaissance through an exploration of its complex history and remarkable literature.
After laying the groundwork of ancient Irish history and centuries of British rule—from the Norman invasion in the 12th century through the brutal Penal Laws and the Great Famine—Professor Conner brings you inside the Irish Revival, when a group of writers began taking a keen interest in the uniquely Irish culture, from its language to its art to its mythology. This fascination fed into the growing demand for Irish nationhood, for the arts, culture, and politics of the time are inextricable.
Uncovering Ireland’s mythic cultural history worked in tandem with promoting the power of a nationalist political movement. As a consequence of British rule, the Protestant Ascendancy had become the dominant land-owning and political class, leaving Catholics and Irish country folk to nurture their identity, history, and myths under strong—often brutal—oppression. As you’ll discover in these lectures, the formation of the Irish identity in the early 20th century was a fierce struggle—a story clearly captured in the literature of the era.

The EarlyMiddle Ages, 284--1000 (HIST 210)
In this lecture, Professor Freedman considers the importance of the British Isles in the early Middle Ages, both in their own right and as an example of a post-Roman frontier society. In the wake of the fifth century Roman withdrawal, England experienced "radical economic simplification." However, England's conversion to Christianity beginning at the end of the sixth century brought about a flourishing written culture and Latin learning. Ireland experienced a similar cultural flowering, although it had converted to Christianity centuries earlier. It had never been colonized by the Romans, and the Irish Church was less hierarchical, more decentralized, and placed less importance on bishops than did the Roman. The conversion of England under the competeing influences of Rome and ireland was thus not just a conflict between Christianity and paganism, but also between two administrative styles of Christianity. Professor Freedman ends the lecture with a few remarks on the cultural accomplishments of the British Isles.
00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction to the British Isles
22:32 - Chapter 2. The Conversion of England
36:30 - Chapter 3. The Conversion of Ireland and the Irish Church

The '''culture of Ireland''' includes customs and traditions, language, music, art, literature, folklore, cuisine and sports associated with Ireland and the Irish people. For most of its recorded history, Ireland's culture has been primarily Gaelic ( see Gaelic Ireland ) . It has also been influenced by Anglo-Norman, English and Scottish culture. The Anglo-Normans invaded Ireland in the 12th century, while the 16th/17th century conquest and colonization of Ireland saw the emergence of the Anglo-Irish and Scots-Irish ( or Ulster Scots ) . Today, there are notable cultural differences between those of Catholic and Protestant ( especially Ulster Protestant ) background, and between travellers and the settled population.

Oran O'Carroll and GemmaWalker present September's show from the historic St Columb's Cathedral. Shane McCaul sees the streets come alive for the Fleadh and talks to some of the men who keep the music going. Also featuring a look at the recent BeyondThe Walls exhibition dealing with war photography. The 400th anniversary of the founding of Derry's walls is celebrated with pageantry and a Mexican wave of nearly 2000 people. And yet another record attempt with a mass Riverdance in Ebrington Square.

***********************************
Ireland was once known and loved as the land of saints and scholars. Stout in its Catholicism and justly proud of its traditions of literature, of art and of Guinness—along with a veritable factory of holy missionaries to places like Africa—Ireland has taken a slow tumble into chaos.
The Irish have fled the church pews like rats from the Titanic in the last 30 years; Catholic leadership on the old sod has been badly hobbled by scandal and tepid leadership; and, corporately, the Irish media have been crafting an aggressively secularist narrative about the nature of the country and its venerable past.
Very few people understand the “before and after” better than John Waters, my guest this week. He’s an author, playwright, rock journalist, and social critic who has decades of observational experience of his homeland—the recent history of which is less than encouraging, with its historic redefinition of marriage in 2015, and now, with the May 25, 2018 Referendum to repeal the 8th Amendment to the Irish Constitution, which guarantees the rights of all Irish citizens, including “the right to life of the unborn.”
If this Article is repealed, the Ireland of old, marked with the glories I mention above, is over. Done for.
I’m airing this interview to make it available to as many Irish listeners before the Referendum. Pray for Ireland.
In this interview, you will learn:
The recent cultural and historical forces that have gotten Ireland to where she is today
The deep meaning in Gaelic of the English word “unborn”
How Ireland developed its current existential nihilism
Signs of hope that Ireland can come back to her former glory
Strategies for engaging a post-Christian culture with a new way of speaking the truth
How therapeutic deism has replaced the Catholic Faith

Lapsed Agnostic By JohnWatersBeyondConsolation: How We Became Too Clever for God and Our OwnGood by John Waters

In 2009, Animo produced The ForgottenIrish for Tv3.
This two part documentary series examined the Irish men and women who were forced to emigrate to the UK during the economic stagnation of the 1950s. It looked at how many of the men became involved in building the motorways and rebuilding war-torn cities around England, while many women worked in domestic service or healthcare.
Despite the enormous contribution these emigrants made, both to their new countries and to Ireland by sending money back home to their families, many of these elderly emigrants are now living lives of poverty and loneliness in their adopted lands.
The Forgotten Irish was an intimate and touching series that encapsulates the personal stories of the generation who emigrated to England after the war, telling very honest, and at times harrowing, stories about the way their lives unfolded.

Chinese Living in Ireland — Culture Shocks, Stereotypes and Racism

As someone born and raised in China who only moved to Ireland at the age of 20, I did have an usual experience when I first came to Ireland by myself. I had an interview with Farzan Safavi the other day covering some of the culture shocks, stereotypes, and racism that I’ve experienced here in Ireland.

Differences Between America and Ireland

Just a few of the random things I've noticed while living in another country!

A Short History of Ireland

Film footage, photographs, music, sound and text are not my creation or copyright. I have uploaded this video so that others me be educated by it.

Due to large-scale emigration from Ireland, Irish culture has a global reach and festivals such as Saint Patrick's Day, Halloween and The Twelfth of July are celebrated all over the world. Irish culture has to some degree been inherited and modified by the Irish diaspora, which in turn has influenced the home country.

A spokesman of Ireland’s Save the 8th campaign approaches the referendum on his country’s pro-life amendment by warning fellow citizens that, as has happened in the U.K., abortion will change the culture in the worst way possible ... ....

In a speech at Queen's University, Mr Corbyn said there was 'deep rooted' opposition to a hard Irish border. Jeremy Corbyn tried to defuse anger over his backing for Irish unification today by insisting he would not force a referendum ... isn’t just about avoiding paperwork or tariffs, it’s about deep-rooted cultural and community ties....

Ola Majekodunmi is a fluent Irish speaker after her Nigerian parents sent her to an Irish-medium school Irish student Ola Majekodunmi was just seven months old when her Nigerian parents sought asylum in Ireland, leaving their four older children in Lagos... “It still surprises people that a person of color would speak Irish,” Majekodunmi added ... IrishTimes ....

'Irish abortions happen; they just don't happen on Irish soil' ...Men and women from the Irish diaspora and both sides of the debate have posted about their journeys home on social media under the hashtag #HomeToVote, sharing photos and stories from airports, planes, cars and trains ... Irish working in the UK ... Others expressed relief to meet other Irish people on the flight from Buenos Aires....

***********************************
Ireland was once known and loved as the land of saints and scholars. Stout in its Catholicism and justly proud of its traditions of literature, of art and of Guinness—along with a veritable factory of holy missionaries to places like Africa—Ireland has taken a slow tumble into chaos.
The Irish have fled the church pews like rats from the Titanic in the last 30 years; Catholic leadership on the old sod has been badly hobbled by scandal and tepid leadership; and, corporately, the Irish media have been crafting an aggressively secularist narrative about the nature of the country and its venerable past.
Very few people understand the “before and after” better than John Waters, my guest this week. He’s an author, playwright, rock journalist, and social critic who has decades of observational experience of his homeland—the recent history of which is less than encouraging, with its historic redefinition of marriage in 2015, and now, with the May 25, 2018 Referendum to repeal the 8th Amendment to the Irish Constitution, which guarantees the rights of all Irish citizens, including “the right to life of the unborn.”
If this Article is repealed, the Ireland of old, marked with the glories I mention above, is over. Done for.
I’m airing this interview to make it available to as many Irish listeners before the Referendum. Pray for Ireland.
In this interview, you will learn:
The recent cultural and historical forces that have gotten Ireland to where she is today
The deep meaning in Gaelic of the English word “unborn”
How Ireland developed its current existential nihilism
Signs of hope that Ireland can come back to her former glory
Strategies for engaging a post-Christian culture with a new way of speaking the truth
How therapeutic deism has replaced the Catholic Faith

Dear Sir I write this note to you to tell you of me' plightFor at the time of writing I am not a pretty sightMe body is all black and blueMe face a deathly greyAnd I write this note to tell you why I'm not at work todayWhile working on the fourteenth floor, some bricks I had to clearBut to toss them down from such a height was not a good ideaThe foreman wasn't very pleased, he is an awkward sodHe said I'd have to cart them down the ladders in me hodNow shifting all those bricks by hand it was so very slowSo I hoisted up a barrel and secured a rope belowBut in me haste to do the job I was to blind to seeThat a barrel full of building bricks is heavier than meAnd so when I untied the rope the barrel fell like leadAnd clinging tightly to the rope I started up insteadI shot up like a rocket til' to my dismay I foundThat half way up I met the bloody barrel comin' downNow the barrel broke me shoulder, as to the ground it spedAnd when I reached the top I banged the pulley with me headI clung on tightly numb with shock from this almightly blowAnd the barrel spilled out half the bricks fourteen floors belowNow when these bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floorI then outweighed the barrel and so started down once moreStill clinging tightly to the rope my body racked with painHalf way down I met the bloody barrel once againNow the force of this collision halfway down the office blockCaused multiple contusions and nasty state of shockStill clinging tightly to the rope I fell toward the groundAnd landed on the broken bricks the barrel had scattered roundWell I lay there groaning on the ground I thought I'd past the worstBut the barrel hit the pulley wheel and then the bottom burstA shower of bricks rained down on me I didn't have a hopeFor as I lay there bleeding I let go of the bloody ropeThe barrel being unsecured then started down once moreAnd it landed right across me as I lay there on the floorIt broke three ribs and my left arm and I can only say
